I asked this in the pet general, but guess maybe it got over looked so I'll ask here ;)

Can anyone recommend any good books about dogs/cats/any kind of pet that are true stories?? I enjoy reading at night and over the years read every book that I have LOL so if anyone knows of any heart warming books please tell me what they're called!

James Harriot wrote the following books.

All Creatures Great and Small
All Things Bright & Beautiful
All Things Wise and Wonderful
The Lord God made them all
James Harriot's Yorkshire

These are funny, sweet, true stories of an English vet. You will laugh and cry.

Another excellent book is Watership Down.

"The Cat Who Came for Christmas" by Cleveland Amory.

Cleveland Amory is the former president of the Fund for Animals. But he was not originally a cat lover. This story is about a rescued cat who adopted him.

He has many humorous and light-hearted true stories about this cat with loads of personality.

Hey thanks guys :)
I'm definitely gonna check those out!!

Zippy, I just got thru reading the Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul. It was really good so if you liked the cat you'll probably love this one--

Actually last night I went to the chickensoup web~site and was going to order a book I found called 'Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul' but it wouldn't let me order it? I don't know why!? Could they maybe be out of that book???

Denise (Brody's mom) sent me a great "cat-book" last year.
It is called "Cat confidencial" and it is written by Vicky Halls. Highly recommended!!

Hey Jackie, that would be nice of you. Don't feel like you have to though, I'm sure I'll find it somewhere if I keep on searching! Maybe Books-A-Million? I haven't been there much, but I know they do have books to read like that so they might have it?

I don't feel like I have to. :p

If you would like me to find and send it to you, no problem, I think I got it at the salvation army for 50 cents.
